Lawsuit Filed in the Death of a Texan Trucker in North Carolina

Fort Worth, TX -- Family members of the man killed in a semi-truck crash while driving on a North Carolina highway this year have filed a lawsuit against another driver and a Texas based tractor trailer trucking company.

Christopher Friday Oko, aged 40, was killed when traveling as a passenger in a semi on Interstate 85 in Creedmoor, North Carolina. The semi crashed into another semi resting on the side of the highway. The fiery crash also caused the death of a pedestrian at the scene.

The driver of the vehicle in which Oko was a passenger is currently charged with two counts of vehicular death. This woman, Xiujie Zhang Warner, was noted for traveling at high speeds prior to losing control of her semi and striking the parked other big rigs.
